  • Flora of Deepdale 2020
    Flora of Deepdale 2020 John Durkin MSC. MCIEEM www.durhamnature.co.uk [email protected] Introduction Deepdale is a side valley of the River Tees, joining the Tees at Barnard Castle. Its moorland catchment area is north of the A66 road across the Pennines. The lower three miles of the dale is a steep-sided rocky wooded valley. The nature reserve includes about half of this area. Deepdale has been designated as a Local Wildlife Site by Durham County Council. Deepdale is one of four large (more than 100 hectare) woods in Teesdale. These are important landscape-scale habitat features which I have termed “Great Woods”. The four Teesdale Great Woods are closely linked to each other, and are predominantly “ancient semi-natural” woods, both of these features increasing their value for wildlife. The other three Teesdale Great Woods are the Teesbank Woods upstream of Barnard Castle to Eggleston, the Teesbank Woods downstream from Barnard Castle to Gainford, and the woods along the River Greta at Brignall Banks. The habitats and wildlife of the Teesdale four are largely similar, with each having its particular distinctiveness. The Teesbank Woods upstream of Barnard Castle have been described in a booklet “A guide to the Natural History of the Tees Bank Woods between Barnard Castle and Cotherstone” by Margaret Morton and Margaret Bradshaw. Most of these areas have been designated as Local Wildlife Sites. Two areas, “Shipley and Great Wood” near Eggleston, and most of Brignall Banks have the higher designation, “Site of Special Scientific Interest”. There are about 22 Great Woods in County Durham, mainly in the well- wooded Derwent Valley, with four along the River Wear, three large coastal denes and the four in Teesdale.

  • The Bear in Eurasian Plant Names
    Kolosova et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2017) 13:14 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0132-9 REVIEW Open Access The bear in Eurasian plant names: motivations and models Valeria Kolosova1*, Ingvar Svanberg2, Raivo Kalle3, Lisa Strecker4,Ayşe Mine Gençler Özkan5, Andrea Pieroni6, Kevin Cianfaglione7, Zsolt Molnár8, Nora Papp9, Łukasz Łuczaj10, Dessislava Dimitrova11, Daiva Šeškauskaitė12, Jonathan Roper13, Avni Hajdari14 and Renata Sõukand3 Abstract Ethnolinguistic studies are important for understanding an ethnic group’s ideas on the world, expressed in its language. Comparing corresponding aspects of such knowledge might help clarify problems of origin for certain concepts and words, e.g. whether they form common heritage, have an independent origin, are borrowings, or calques. The current study was conducted on the material in Slavonic, Baltic, Germanic, Romance, Finno-Ugrian, Turkic and Albanian languages. The bear was chosen as being a large, dangerous animal, important in traditional culture, whose name is widely reflected in folk plant names. The phytonyms for comparison were mostly obtained from dictionaries and other publications, and supplemented with data from databases, the co-authors’ field data, and archival sources (dialect and folklore materials). More than 1200 phytonym use records (combinations of a local name and a meaning) for 364 plant and fungal taxa were recorded to help find out the reasoning behind bear-nomination in various languages, as well as differences and similarities between the patterns among them. Among the most common taxa with bear-related phytonyms were Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (L.) Spreng., Heracleum sphondylium L., Acanthus mollis L., and Allium ursinum L., with Latin loan translation contributing a high proportion of the phytonyms.

  • C-Banding Patterns in Eighteen Taxa of the Genus Paris Sensu Li, Liliaceae
    _??_1992 The Japan Mendel Society Cytologia 57: 181-194, 1992 C-banding Patterns in Eighteen Taxa of the Genus Paris sensu Li, Liliaceae Junko Miyamoto1, Siro Kurita1, Gu Zhilian2 and Li Hen2 1 Department of Biology , Faculty of Science, Chiba University, Japan 2 Kunming Institute of Botany , Academy of Science of China, Kunming, Yunnan, China Accepted October 31, 1991 Paris is a perennial genus distributed from Europe to the Far East . Most species, how ever, are restricted to Asia, excepting a European species P. quadrifolia Linnaeus and a Cau casian species P. incompleta M. -Bieberstein. Hara (1969) studied morphological variation in seven species: P. delavayi Franchet; P. incomplete M. -Bieberstein; P. japonica (Franch . et Sav.) Franchet; P. polyphylla Smith; P. quadrifolia Linnaeus; P. tetraphylla A. Gray; and P. verticillata M. -Bieberstein. Takhtajan (1983) founded a new genus Daiswa for all taxa of Papolyphylla complex, but Li (1988) degraded this to the subgeneric level. The historical back ground of Paris taxonomy and the synonymy of each taxon were summarized by Mitchell (1987, 1988). Karyomorphological studies on Japanese species were carried out by various authors (Gotoh 1933, Haga 1934, 1942, Hara 1969, Kayano 1961, Kurabayashi 1952, Kurabayashi and Samejima 1953, Miyamoto and Kurita 1990, Miyamoto et al. 1991, Noda 1963, Stow 1953, Suzuki and Yoshimura 1986). The standard chromosome numbers reported by these authors are 2n=10 (2X) in P. teteraphylla and P. verticillata and 2n=40 (8X) in P. japonica. The only European species, P. quadrifolia, was examined by many authors (Tischler 1934, Gotoh 1937, Geitler 1938, Darlington 1941, Love and Love 1944, Polya 1950, Skalinska et al.

Bieb. and P. quadrifolia L. Taxonomically detailed description of the species are based on collected and examined specimens; distributions and illustrations are presented along with anatomical cross sections of leaves, stems, rhizomes and roots and leaf surfaces. The differing anatomical structure of studied plant parts is suitable for use as an additional tool in their identification. Karyotypes of the species are determined, P. incompleta, as 2n = 10, diploid, chromosome formula is 2m+4sm+2st+2t and P. quadrifolia as 2n = 20, tetraploid, chromosome formula is 4m+8sm+2st+2t. Photographies of species in naturel habitat, distribution map of species in Turkey, detailed drawing of flowers and general view of species, drawings and microphotographies of the karyotypes are also presented. Key words: Paris, morphology, anatomy, taxonomy, karyotype ---------- ---------- Türkiye’deki Paris cinsi üzerinde morfolojik, anatomik ve karyolojik araştırmalar Özet Bu çalışma Türkiye’de 2 tür (P. incomplete M.

  • SANKARAN Rajan Introduction for a Long Time I Hesitated to Write a Book on Remedies Because I Am Well Aware of the Dangers Inherent in Such an Undertaking
    SANKARAN Rajan Introduction For a long time I hesitated to write a book on remedies because I am well aware of the dangers inherent in such an undertaking. In the first place, there is a strong possibility that the reader, especially if he is a beginner in the field, might become fixed on these remedy pictures and forget that every remedy has a wider range and greater scope than any one individual can see or describe. Not realising that these pictures represent only one version, only one view of the remedy, he might wrongly imagine that he had seen the whole. I also realise that an idea imper- fectly communicated which might easily be corrected in a "Live" teaching situation, is far less easily rectified when it has been committed to print. Finally there is a danger that the reader's Materia Medica may be narrowed down to the limited number of remedies described here; it may create a tendency to try to fit all patients into one of these pictures; thus young practition- ers might fail to make the unprejudiced search through the Repertory or the more complete Materia Medica which the best prescribing requires. However, in the last two or three years, my books "The Spirit of Homoeopathy" and "The Sub- stance of Homoeopathy" have achieved some popularity. These books, written to introduce stu- dents of Homoeopathy to my line of thinking are not, and were never intended to be, texts of Materia Medica. Nevertheless some readers found the ideas on various remedies presented in these books useful in practice, though somewhat inconvenient in form, since using the index to check a particular remedy often obliges one to look in several different places.

Huber hypothesized in 1969 that most capsules in Asparagales are derived secondarily from berries and that this transformation was correlated with the evolution of phytomelan-coated seeds, a pivotal character in his circumscription of Asparagales as part of reclassifying Liliaceae s.l. Dahlgren and co-workers suggested several parallel derivations and "reversals" in this character, e.g., the transformation se­ quence trifollicular fruits __..

    Superoxide dismutase polymorphisms in wild populations of herb Paris (Paris quadrifolia L., Trilliaceae) Vaida Jogaite, Polymorphism of superoxide dismutase (SOD) was investigated in leaves of Violeta KIeizaite, herb Paris (Paris quadrifolia L., Trilliaceae). The plants were collected dur­ ing the summer and autumn of 2001 from different natural locations in Asta Stapulionyte, Lithuania and Norway. Crude extracts from leaves were analyzed using elec­ Dag K. Bjerketvedt* trophoresis in polyacrylamide gel for SOD polymorphism detection. By means of analysis of plants from different locations, some differences in the elec­ Department of Botany and trophoretic mobility and the phenotypes of SOD bands were detected. Dif­ Genetics, Vilnius University, ferences appeared between the Lithuanian and the Norwegian samples and M. K.
